Does the 'Padmavati' controversy have anything to do with Ranveer opting out of Remo D'Souza's show?

Ranveer Singh was scheduled to appear on Remo D'souza and Terence Lewis's 'Dance Champions' show on Monday however, reports suggest that the actor had to opt out of the show following the change of the release date of his upcoming film 'Padmavati' which was scheduled to release on the 1st of December. And the episode was wrapped up without the actor's appearance eventually.

A source said, "The shoot was slated for Monday and had been planned well in advance. When the production house (behind 'Padmavati') announced that they are voluntarily deferring the film's release, the promotional appearance on the show was called off too, subsequently sending the show's team into a tizzy because the contestants had prepared their acts on chartbusters from Ranveer's films."

Also, a special number was planned with Ranveer and Bir Radha Sherpa, the winner of Remo's previous show, 'Dance Plus'. Last minute changes had to be made in scripts and the dances and so the shoot too was delayed by a day. The actor was a no-show, however, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer's co-star in 'Padmavati' kept her date with Salman Khan and made her appearance on 'Bigg Boss'. Meanwhile, the movie is still to announce their new release date. Did Ranveer not show up because of the controversy surrounding the film...well, that's still a mystery.
